Two days later, @EPA sent California a letter expressing concern about environmental impacts blamed on the state’s “growing homelessness crisis developing in major California cities” following one of the president’s tweets. https://t.co/MlJ1Ogy3Nx — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

@USDOJ Then, @EPA threatened California with the loss of highway funding, saying that the state had the “worst air quality in the United States.” This letter was reportedly written by EPA political officials “assigned specifically to target California.” https://t.co/W2a4XcSt5d — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Just weeks after that announcement, @USDOJ launched an antitrust investigation on California and those four automakers for their voluntary agreement. Really, it’s ironic, given that this administration’s alternative to their agreement actually is illegal https://t.co/kC8VaMx96P — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

In late July, California and four major automakers announced they reached a voluntary framework agreement that that will protect clean air, promote American jobs and support the development of cars of the future https://t.co/xJRkjFOnVb — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

This lawsuit is the latest act of retaliation against California for working with four major automakers on standards to reduce global warming pollution. https://t.co/yZUBG30QsP — PolitiTweet.org

I heard directly from faculty and students at @DelStateUniv about ways the #FUTUREAct helps the university achieve its mission of professional and personal development. It’s why I’ll continue working with my colleagues to ensure #HBCUs across the U.S. receive this vital funding. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Your administration demonstrates a troubling lack of concern with Hatch Act compliance. That's why I've requested multiple reviews of potential violations from @US_OSC – because no one is above the law. https://t.co/9Zs9xW809P — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

No, @realDonaldTrump, you shirk your responsibilities when you let your administration disregard the Hatch Act time and time again. Let me remind you, it's meant to ensure government officials don’t use their positions to unfairly influence political activity (like elections). — PolitiTweet.org

Approved by @EPWDems in July, our bipartisan surface reauthorization bill #ATIA includes new investments to boost safety for non-motorists. Read more: https://t.co/878bqTlpKM https://t.co/VtbcZq3bHL — PolitiTweet.org

These numbers make clear that some progress has been made, but much more work remains to make our roads safe - especially for cyclists and pedestrians. — PolitiTweet.org

In just 10 days, the #ACA health insurance marketplace will be up and running. Don’t waste time: open enrollment can fly by, so make a plan now to #GetCovered. Visit https://t.co/3KDAz9OcAn to learn more, and remember, 8 out of 10 people qualify for financial aid! https://t.co/pAXJpsU8mf — PolitiTweet.org

As someone who has served in a hot war and a cold war, I’ve worked alongside coalition forces who risked their lives to help Americans and further mutual goals. @realDonaldTrump's decision to turn his back on our Kurdish allies is the worst kind of betrayal. This is unfathomable — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

The @EPA’s proposal to upend Clean Water Act Section 401 would render states virtually powerless to protect water resources from risky energy projects. Read the letter @SenDuckworth, @SenBooker and I sent to the EPA and submitted to the public docket: https://t.co/wN875joZX7 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

The concept of ‘cooperative federalism’ is merely a pretense in this administration. https://t.co/zVZN6Nvp3U — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Once again, @JoeBiden is right. Congress passed – with bipartisan support – funding to address the root causes of migration in Central America, but the Trump Administration halted the funding. And now, it’s only restoring some of it. We must restore ALL of this critical funding. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

The “phony” Emoluments Clause is enshrined in our Constitution, Mr. President. And it's there to ensure that individuals like you, who hold the highest offices in our land, are following the rules and serving the American people, not using their positions to enrich themselves. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

U.S. businesses have felt the negative effects of @realDonaldTrump's trade wars for too long. Today, I met with Delaware business owners to talk about my bills that will put American consumers ⁠— who continue to pay the price of the president's trade wars ⁠— ahead of politics. https://t.co/iR9hFgXHtH — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

If this administration was actually concerned about air quality in California, @EPA would not have moved to repeal California’s authority to set its own clean air standards. Plain and simple. https://t.co/UkaDzaFlXs https://t.co/YfIFMeBUFP — PolitiTweet.org

If all of us - no matter our political beliefs or backgrounds - were to learn from Sonia Sloan’s example, this planet would be a better place. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

The Trump Administration wants to claim victory with this so-called “cease-fire deal” in which: - Turkey takes over our Kurdish allies’ land and Kurds are displaced from their homes. - Russia and Iran are emboldened. - ISIS members run free. This isn’t a win. It’s weakness. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

My friend, @SenatorRomney, is right. President Trump’s shameful decision to abandon our Kurdish allies will most certainly be "a blood stain in the annals of American history." This is a moral failing and it's up to both sides to act now and stand on the right side of history. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Perhaps climate science would make the agenda at this Trump resort. https://t.co/WuLaNAaxdp — PolitiTweet.org

Sanctions alone will not reverse the atrocities unfolding in Syria as a result of Trump’s policy, but we must let Erdogan know that his behavior is unacceptable. It's why I joined @ChrisVanHollen and @LindseyGrahamSC to introduce a bill to do just that: https://t.co/ayr41VAe5C — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

.@realDonaldTrump's foolish decision to pull U.S. troops out of Syria and leave our Kurdish allies open to predictable invasion and slaughter by Turkey has resulted in a humanitarian crisis, paved the way for the reemergence of ISIS and emboldened our adversaries. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

It's up to all of us to carry on Elijah's legacy and learn from the example he set. Martha and I send our sincerest condolences to Elijah’s wife, Maya, their children, his beloved city of Baltimore and all those who knew him. May he rest in peace. https://t.co/qiYGHZVJlS — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Elijah was also a man of deep faith. Today, I’m reminded of the prophet Elijah from Scripture who did not die, but was taken up to heaven in a whirlwind while his spirit lived on to inspire his successors on earth. I know Elijah Cummings’ spirit will similarly live on. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

I was fortunate to work with Chairman Cummings over the years. He was a great partner who truly wanted to see our government work for every American. We worked on numerous investigations together, and he was always determined to seek out what Americans deserve – the truth. https://t.co/V4jIQ7KfjU — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Elijah Cummings was a great leader in Congress, and he was a good man who believed in the promise of this nation and the responsibility we all have to leave a more fair, more just world for those who come after us. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

Elijah Cummings used his minute here on Earth to fight for a fairer world for all Americans. And he fit an eternity into his lifetime of service. He set an example for us all, and he will be deeply missed. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

As @EPA drags its feet, the Senate can’t wait any longer to hold polluters accountable - by passing a measure supported by a bipartisan group of 53 senators designating PFAS as hazardous substances under the Superfund law — PolitiTweet.org
